The Reed Organ Society

The Reed Organ Society Inc. is an international organization with Headquarters currently located in Troy, New York. Current membership stands around 650. Membership is open to anyone with an interest in free reed instruments of whatever type, and includes collectors, restorers, performers, and the just plain "interested"...

The ROS publishes the ROS Bulletin four times each year, which contains articles of interest on all topics related to reed organs and harmoniums.

The ROS maintains a registry of extant instruments, a summary of which is published each year. We are in the process of making this material available by ftp; for the moment, the index of the ROSB since its inception is ftp-able and searchable. For instructions, send an e-mail message to ros@mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk.
